I cannot stress the awesomeness of this card. I'll use it with mark of eviction with my rogue deck and gleefully dismantle their deck 3 cards at a time. "oh let me just "relieve" you of this card. Oh this ones a bit dangerous for little kiddies like you don't you think? Nah you won't be needing this one for sure" What could be more fun? Great threat remover.
by the way goblinrunner09 could you kindly give us a deck list of this goblin deck you supposedly have that ends the game on turn 2? I know goblin decks are fast and what not but i don't think their that fast. I think you exaggerate but feel free by all means to prove me wrong.

Ya but with a goblin deck usually the games about over by the time you could really use this.

@Need:
He didn't say that goblins usually win BEFORE you can play this. He said that the game is just about over by the time you could use it, meaning that the game is already heavily in your favor. Here's a little overkill:
T1 goblin lackey. T2 swing (19) drop in siege-gang commander, play goblin piledriver. T3 play goblin chieftain, swing with three 3/3 tokens, a 2/2 lackey, a 3/3 siege-gang, a 2/2 chieftain, and a whopping 14/3 piledriver. That's 30 damage on that turn, 31 damage dealt in total, and it makes the earwig squad look like a waste of precious mana.
Too much? Ok, how's this: T1 lackey. T2 swing (19) drop in piledriver, play second piledriver.) T3 chieftain, swing with a 2/2 lackey, a 2/2 chieftain, and two 8/3 piledrivers, coming to a total of 20 damage on that turn.
Ok, ok. ONE last example, if you still think that's too much.
T1 lackey, T2 swing and drop in goblin warchie... (see all)

@Polski
Instead of listing Goblin Lackey three times, you should have put in something about Empty The Warrens. Surely i've seen enough games end on turn one thanks to that card.

I've had an opponent fold because he didn't want to sit through a second earwig drilling.
Excellent in Rogue tribal with unblockable/evasive creatures.

I like the fact that these guys are playable even without the prowl... I wonder if I want to lose some more friends by putting a copy in my flicker deck...

Alternate text, "Destroy target combo deck, it can't be regenerated" when combo'd with Invisible Stalker.
